It was built in 470 BC and completed in 456 BC. In 86 BC, the Roman army captured Athens, destroyed the unfinished structure, and removed some of the stone columns and other building materials and shipped them to Rome. The Temple of Zeus was badly damaged, with only 13 of the 104 pillars remaining. Hadrian's Arch Hadrian's Arch.
A triumphal arch from the Roman era, built by Emperor Hadrian in 131 AD. At that time, architectural arches divided the urban area into two districts, the old and the new. To the east is the new urban area expanded by Emperor Hadrian, and to the west is the old urban area. Acropolis AcropolisAcropolis, which originally meant "city on the heights" or "city-state on a high hill", is located on the Acropolis hill in the center of Athens.
It was founded in 580 BC. The anime "Saint Seiya" has been deeply rooted in the mind of this majestic complex since childhood. Although there is no "Zodiac" in the cartoon and the Golden Saint Seiya who swore to defend Athena to the death, the remains of the building that have been baptized for more than 2,500 years are still impressive.
The Acropolis of the Acropolis, the entrance to the Acropolis, consists of a central main part and two asymmetrical wings. The Doric and Ionic columns are skillfully interspersed and juxtaposed at the Acropolis Mountain Gate, which is majestic. ParthenonThe Parthenon, located on the highest point on the hill, is the largest shrine dedicated to the goddess Athena.
Parthenon originally meant virgin and was another name for Athena. The statue of the goddess Athena is said to be 12 meters high. Made of ivory and gold, it shimmers with gold in the temple. Later, the statue was taken to Constantinople by the Roman emperor, and its whereabouts are unknown. The temple was damaged in 1687 when the Venetians fought against the Turks. Although some restorations have been carried out.
However, the temple has not been restored to its original appearance, and only a stone pillar shell remains. The Temple of ErechionThe Temple of ErechionThe Temple of Erechion is a typical example of the Ionian style in the architecture of the Acropolis, and is said to be the place where the goddess Athena and the god of the sea Poseidon fought for their wits to be the protector of Athens.
At the southern end of the temple, six marble statuettes were carved out of marble instead of stone pillars. Their long skirts are tied to their breasts, and they are light and fluttering. The top of the head is a thousand pounds, slim and slim. Due to the heavy weight of the stone roof, the neck of the 6 girls must be designed to be thick enough in order to lift the heavy stone top, but this will affect its beauty.
So the architect kept a thick strand of hair at the back of each girl's neck, and added a flower basket on top of his head. It has successfully solved the problems of architectural aesthetics, so it is famous all over the world. Temple of Athena's VictoryTemple of Athena's Victory. Theatre of Aticus, built in 161 AD, is the oldest theatre in the world and one of the most outstanding buildings of its time.
Dionysian Theater Dionysian Theater. The flag of Greece, love its blue and white tones. Match the azure Aegean Sea and the holy ancient Greek city-states. In the distance, Lycabettushill, the highest point of Athens, unfortunately did not climb the mountain to catch a glimpse of Athens at night. Above the Acropolis, overlooking the Temple of Zeus. Gorgeous flowers everywhere in Greece.
The Colonnade of Attalus, a long cloister with a variety of sculptures on display. Walk all the way to the bustling Monastiraki Square, home to the most characteristic flea market in Athens. And, of course, Ann's favorite fruit stall. The cherries here are really cheap and delicious, 2 euros for a big paper bag when you return to Athens from Santorini.
I also made a special trip here to buy it again. After a long day of wandering, it was finally time for a big meal, and I managed to find the iconic chapel of Monastiraki Square, and then found the Mpairaktaris restaurant, which has been recommended by countless people. An enthusiastic old lady praised Yunluo and An Chuyu about the good quality and low price of this restaurant, which shows that there are many local customers in this restaurant.
The menu flipped through for a long time and ended up with a mixed roast and a lamb with potatoes, which was really large. After the main course, the owner sent desserts, including the famous greekyogurt, which was still a little sweet for Yunluo, who doesn't like sweets. After dinner, probably due to jet lag, I went back to the hotel and fell asleep.
I wanted to come out at night to see the night view of Athens but couldn't make the trip. Either way, the European honeymoon was a success. On the second day, we will go to the romantic Aegean Sea.
Blue and white Santorini Fira - took the metro to Piraeus Pier early in the morning to take the Bluestar to Santorini, because of the European debt crisis, and saved two more metro tickets. After exiting the station, I successfully exchanged tickets and found a boat to the holy island, and at this time, the morning sun slowly rose in the sky. Yunluo and An first met and booked an airplane cabin, and the seats were leathery and relatively wide.
Later, it turned out that passengers actually prefer to concave on the deck, bask in the sun, and blow the sea breeze, and there are not many people who book cabins. As soon as the boat sailed out of the dock. I went to the deck to take various shots, and recorded the excitement of swimming in the Aegean Sea with my camera. On the deck, Chinese people in all kinds of strange costumes, all kinds of long guns and short guns are taking pictures, and foreigners sit on the chairs and enjoy the sunny holiday.
Each has its own fun. The journey of more than 7 hours is still a bit long, but the experience of blue sky, blue sea and sunny island is rare in this life. Although I have seen it countless times. But when I first saw the holy island, I was still attracted by the dense white bricks and tiles on the cliff. The volcanic eruption wiped out the Minoan civilization in Crete, but left an island for the people.
In the end, this blue and white fantasy world was created. Take a pre-booked shuttle bus from the pier to your hotel Archouse in the town of Imerovigli, where you can experience the beauty of the sea cliffs from a different perspective. The first time I stayed in the Cliff Hotel, I was pleasantly surprised when I entered the door, the white style in the house was in harmony with the blue sea and sky outside the window.
With the view of the volcanic island through the windows and a private terrace to soak up the sun, the people who live here enjoy and enjoy it. It is no wonder that the whole country is in debt crisis, born in sorrow and dying in peace.
Archouse's planned itinerary was from the coastal side of the town of Imerovigli to the town of Fira, the capital of the Holy Island. From the moment I walked out of the cliff hut, the camera kept "clicking", every angle, every scenery wanted to be permanently recorded with the camera, but only by being there can we appreciate the beauty of the holy island. Because the strategy is in place.
The most famous blue-roofed church was also successfully found, and a photo was taken from the perspective of someone else, which is the old port of Fira, with a cable car connecting the port to the town center. And, of course, the famous donkey trail. The Greek people are full of joy and joy in life. It was almost dusk when I arrived at Fira, and I sat on the stone steps by the sea and watched the sunset.
This is a must-do activity every day on the Holy Island. People enjoy the sunset in the sunset. Have dinner together. Yunluo and An Chuyu also began to look for their favorite restaurant, planning to have a good dinner. As the sun goes down and the lights come on, the holy island at night reveals a different kind of beauty. Finally, choose a restaurant on the edge of a cliff.
I ordered traditional Greek seafood and grilled meats, and the taste was decent. In the dining room, fireworks were set off on the beach. It added a touch of joy to the night. Return to the cliff hut and look back at the Holy Island in the night. goodnight,santorini!
Wake up on the day of the drive to the holy island of Akrotirilighthouse-Kokkinibeach-PE, push the door to the beautiful Aegean Sea, and the morning sun shines through the rooftops onto the platform. It's so pleasant. Have a continental breakfast at the hotel next door, and the satisfaction of the day starts with the stomach. Around 10 o'clock, go to the Jimmys car shop recommended by the hotel front desk to rent a car.
Comprehensive cost performance, give up everyone's always preferred smart, choose the black and gray modern hatchback, the car is in good condition, and then rely on it for two days. In order to drive navigation, I specially applied for a calling card of the Cosmote company, 5 days 2GB, enough to use, and it is quite cost-effective to use with Skype.
The first stop of the day is the lighthouse at the southernmost point of the Holy Island. All the way to the vicinity of Akrotiri, but was navigated into a dead end at the entrance of the village. When it was difficult to make a U-turn, a local old man came out scolding, thinking that Yunluo and An Churan only relied on navigation to have long eyes, and it seemed that someone (especially the Chinese) went wrong every day, disturbing his tranquility.
After scolding, the old man still helped the command reverse the car and pointed out the right way for Yunluo and An Chuyu. Instead of shaking hands and saying goodbye, it was a sigh of relief, and it was really annoying to think about the fact that the booming tourism industry has caused many locals to lose their tranquility. After a while, we came to the lighthouse, which itself has limited highlights, but the sea view here is great.
Some people say that the sunset scenery here is better than OIA, but unfortunately it is far away from the residence, and I am too lazy to run here in the evening, so I can't watch the sunset here, which is a small regret on the trip to the holy island. After taking pictures, sail to Kokkinibeach. Due to volcanic eruptions, different minerals form different colors at different temperatures.
So there are different colors of sand on the holy island: red sand beach, black sand beach, white sand beach. Kokkinibeach is a red sand beach located at the southern tip of the holy island, which is red because of its iron content. Parking near the beach, crystal clear water. If you go up the path, you will see the red beach at the top of the slope.
There are loungers for rent on the beach, and many foreign cuties are sunbathed here. Let's also change into the swimsuit prepared in advance and have a close contact with the sea. The beaches are all rocky. It's terrible to step on, but it's a great feeling to soak in the sun in the sea. When you've had enough, drive to another beach, Perissabeach.
Perissabeach is the longest beach on the Holy Island, and it is considered a real sandy beach instead of a gravel beach, and the sand is darker in color. Because just played from the beach. Here's a quick take a picture and see the bikini beauties. Uncle Fat Boy dares to attack Ann Chuyu with a frisbee, leaves the beach, and drives back to the center of Fira.
Fill your belly with the pita that Yunluo likes. After being scorched by the scorching sun for a day, I really didn't want to drive, so I decided to go back to the archouse where Yunluo and An first met to watch the sunset. The sun faded into the sky, and Yunluo and An Chuyu started a selfie show on the terrace.
I made a simple breakfast with food bought at lidl supermarket the day before. After a final look from the terrace, we bid farewell to the peaceful town of Imerovigli and head to OIA, the second station on the Holy Island.
The cliff road from Imerovigli to Oia is the best road drive on the Holy Island. There are many bends and narrow roads, but there are few vehicles, and the speed soars to fifty or sixty per hour, and is often overtaken by local taxis... However, with a steep cliff on one side and the sea on the other, this kind of highway is really in a good mood~ OIA booked the cliff cave hotel virginiastraditionalcave.
It took a long time to find a hotel, and it turned out that the cliff cave hotels in OIA had to be entered from the pedestrian street and then down to the bottom of the cliff. Fortunately, there are people from the hotel to help carry luggage, or I am sure that I am tired. The hotel is clean and tidy. Excellent location with a slightly larger private terrace. The host, Virginia, was also extremely kind. There are many Chinese tourists leaving messages in the guest book.
Praise this hotel and of course the price is quite high. Invincible sea view~ But look at the terrace of other people's homes, there are better and wider views, and enjoying the beautiful scenery is never satisfied. According to the planned trip, drive away from OIA. Come to Kamaribeach, another black sand beach. It's close to Fira and the sea is cool and clean.
There are many restaurants, bars, and souvenir shops in the surrounding area. Follow the example of a foreigner to bask in the sun on the beach, and in just over ten seconds, his back and buttocks are hot. I really don't know how they can endure it, the skin is rough and the flesh is thick... I don't go down to the sea to swing stones on the beach, and I feel so happy in front of this kind of scenery.
The simplest of entertainment can be enjoyable and satisfying. I was a little hungry when I played, so I found a restaurant in a nearby town to satisfy my hunger. After eating, take out the map and study the route, and continue to set off. I wanted to go to the commanding heights of the Holy Island to see Pirgos, but I rushed all the way and felt that the scenery was average, so I gave up halfway.
Turning back to OIA, I got a little lost, and I took the coastal path under the cliff by mistake. Although the speed limit is low and the road is winding and the road is far away, being closer to the sea gives you a different feeling. It is approaching dusk when we return to OIA, and the best viewing platform, the Kasbah, has already gathered many tourists.
Let's go back to the cave and clean up briefly, a cat is having fun on the terrace. Walk through the pedestrian street to OIA's most crowded viewpoint, where the sunset is a reason for OIA to attract tourists from all over the world. As the sun goes down, so do the crowds at the viewpoint. Kastro Restaurant.
It is known as the best restaurant in OIA to watch the sunset, but many tourists stand outside the restaurant to watch the sunset, and the view is inevitably obstructed. The castle is still the best vantage point, especially in this dilapidated corner. There is a donkey road on the hill that leads to the small port of Ammoudibay below. finally seized a position among many Chinese aunts.
Wait quietly for the sunset. People record this natural beauty with their cameras, and their faces can't hide their excitement. At the beginning of the day, OIA showed another lively scene. Yunluo and An, who don't like nightlife, choose to go back to the house to rest, and tomorrow there will be a whole day to enjoy this beautiful town.
It's the last day on the Holy Island, and it's planned to spend all the time in OIA, with the first activity being the breakfast buffet. Facing the sea, drinking juice, coffee, biting on sandwiches, and finally having some fruit and yogurt, this life is simply a luxury, but don't the people of the holy island enjoy it so much every day, so envious.
After dinner, bask in the sun on the terrace and blow the sea breeze, which is very comfortable~oia, known as the most beautiful town in Greece, and the introduction to it is roughly like this: beautiful sunsets, beautiful churches, charming white cottages; Walking through every alley of Oia, you will find that, in fact, everywhere is a landscape.
Every house, every flower that blooms in the corner, every door and window, even the backs of tourists in the small streets and the cats and dogs wandering freely, will become the most beautiful scenery in the shot. When you're tired of walking, find a restaurant to sit down and have a bite to drink. An Chuyu recommended Yunluo to drink a cup of ouzo, saying that it was a Greek specialty.
Then, this cup of unsightly liquid appeared~ When I ordered, I specially asked if it was alcohol, whether the Greek's English was too poor or Yunluo's pronunciation was inaccurate, and the waiter definitely said no. This sip came up, I didn't spray it at the time, the rich smell of wine, and most importantly, the strong star anise taste, which is no different from chewing star anise.
Take out your mobile phone Baidu: Ouzo is a unique Greek spirit, with an alcohol content of about 40 degrees, but it is enough in the eyes of Westerners; Colorless and transparent, packed in a colorless glass bottle, the appearance is very simple; Due to the high degree of ouzo, many people prefer to dilute it before drinking; Interestingly, because the wine contains a lot of organic substances.
